Better yet as long as you're going to the trouble go to South Africa, have
an entire THREE YEAR OLD Vanagon (microbus) shipped over and cut the right side
 of an American bus and weld it on. OH, then convert it to left hand drive.
Nothing to it.  ;)

I think if you need a double sliding door bus, and we all do, you're better
off buying the double sliding door Vanagon from Canada and dealing with the
red  tape.

I don't think it would be that hard to get the Canadian Vanagon into the
USA. Just take off the band, put it in a unlabled box, and have it shipped. I
hear that works when you're trying to get Cuban cigars from Canada into the  USA.
